Lost Without You (Pinescone)

Chapter One

Dipper's POV:

"Dipper, take the cash register shift!" Grunkle Stan yelled from the living room.

"Ugh, why? I do cash register all the time! Why can't Mabel do it for once?" I complained.

"Because you sister always gives out free things!"

He had a point. So I went behind the register. It was a slow day, and there weren't even any customers. Sigh.

I waited and waited until about 45 minutes later a cute tall guy about my age walked in with a little kid. I stared at him, mesmerized as he walked up to the counter.

"Excuse, um we are kind of lost." He said snapping me out of my trance.

"Oh um... Of course you're lost you're in here! Haha..." I wasn't sure what to say so I tried to make a joke.

He just stared at me confused. "Oh um yeah... Heh heh.. We are trying to get home, can you tell us where we are?"

"You guys are in Gravity Falls."

"Gravity Falls?"

"Hey Dipper want some dinner? I made spaghetti!!" Mabel said bursting through the door and then she noticed that there were other people. "Ooh, Guests!! Would you guys like to come eat dinner with us??"

"Umm... We should really get going..." The older boy said. "But, Wirt I'm hungry!" The little boy whined.

"Well it is getting dark...." Mabel said pointing out the window. "Do you guys need somewhere to stay?"

"Um..." The boy called 'Wirt' looked hesitant.

"Yes, we do. Thank you!" The little boy said.

"Greg! Um okay.... Thanks.." He said looking down.

"Alright follow me to the dining table!" Mabel said leading them. "Just sit down here and I'll get the food."

The two brothers, I would've assumed, sat next to each other. And I sat across from the older one. "So... Your name is Wirt?" I asked.

"Yeah, what is yours? Wait, how did you know my name?" He asked. "Uh my name is Dipper, and I heard your brother say your name..."

"Oh." Wirt said and we sat in silence. "My name is Greg!" The younger one exclaimed. "Hello, Greg." I said.

"Here's dinner!!" Mabel came in balancing four plates of spaghetti on her arms. She passed them out and sat down next to me.

"So, I heard you guys talking from the kitchen so I already know your names... How old are you guys?" Mabel asked.

"I am 14 and Greg is 8." Wirt said.

"Cool. Me and Dip are 14, too!" Mabel exclaimed. "Sooo, Wirt, do you have any crushes??" Mabel asked.

Oh no, I hope she doesn't like him. "Alright! Does anybody need a drink?" I asked standing up, but I stood up to fast and fell.

"A-are you okay?!?" Wirt jumped up, holding out his hand.

"Um, yeah thanks.." I blushed and grabbed his hand. He pulled me up, but a little too fast and I fell into him. It all happened fairly quickly but we fell to the the ground, with me on top of him. At first we both we a little dazed about what had just happened and we stared into each others eyes. Once I regained control I pushed myself off of him but still sat on the floor. "Sorry! Sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" I blushed and put my hand to my forehead in embarrassment.

"Its fine." He was sitting still as well and he smiled a cute awkward smile.

I looked up at him. "Are you sure?"
